DEPARTMENT. Town Attorney
Ph 5121 4:30 LL Moratorium on Resorts/Hotels/Motels
RESOLVED that there has been presented to the Town Board of the Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New
York, on the 26th day of March, 2024, a Local Law entitled, "A Local Law to Impose an Interim or
Temporary Suspension on the Review,Approval and/or Issuance of all Permits for or Relating to
Resorts, Hotels or Motels" and be it further
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold will hold a public hearing on the aforesaid Local
Law at the Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road, Southold, New York, on the 21st day of May, 2024 at 4:30
p.m. at which time all interested persons will be given an opportunity to be heard.
The proposed Local Law entitled, "A Local Law to Impose an Interim or Temporary Suspension on the
Review, Approval and/or Issuance of all Permits for or Relating to Resorts Hotels or Motels"reads as
follows:
LOCAL LAW NO. 2024
A Local Law entitled, "A Local Law to Impose an Interim or Temporary Suspension on the Review,
Approval and/or Issuance of all Permits for or Relating to Resorts, Hotels or Motels".
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, as follows:
SECTION 1. TITLE.
This local law shall be known as and may be cited as the "Interim Development Law for Resorts, Hotels
or Motels in the Town of Southold."
SECTION 2. AUTHORITY.
This local law is enacted pursuant to the Town of Southold's authority to enact local laws under the New
York State Constitution, Article IX, and the Laws of the State of New York including but not limited to Section
10 of the Statue of Local Governments, granting towns the power to adopt, amend and repeal zoning regulations
in the exercise of its functions,powers and duties.
SECTION 3. PURPOSE AND INTENT.
A. PURPOSE: MORATORIUM
This local law is hereby enacted to preserve the status quo in the Town of Southold on a temporary basis
while the Town conducts studies to review and consider amendments to those parts of the Town of Southold's
zoning legislation and comprehensive plan pertaining to resorts, hotels and motels in the Town. For this
purpose, the Town of Southold will gather information, make recommendations, and further review the Town's
plan for new resorts, hotels or motels in the Town. This process is intended to lead to the creation and adoption
of necessary amendments to the Town's zoning legislation, comprehensive plan, and other applicable Town
laws.
B. INTENT.
The Town Board finds and determines that the Town is under considerable pressure for the development
of new resorts, hotels and motels. The Town is an attractive location for new resorts, hotels and motels, because
of the variety of community attractions located within and close to the Town. Over the past several years the
Town has had six new hotels proposed. One is currently under construction, one is at the beginning of the site
plan process, and four are in the concept phase. There are two expansions at the beginning of the site plan
process - one for an increase in the number of rooms, and one for an addition of a restaurant.
The Town Board further finds and determines that unless reasonable interim measures are implemented,
significant resort, hotel or motel development may occur, and that development may undermine the
implementation of appropriate planning measures needed to protect the public interest and welfare and goals of
the Town. It is the intent of the Town Board to protect public health, safety and general welfare by enacting this
local law for a reasonable period. The Town is undertaking a comprehensive study to develop solutions and to
implement necessary amendments to the land use and zoning regulations to accomplish such goals.
It is the further intention of the Town Board to protect the public interest by preventing a race of
diligence between property owners, developers and the Town which could prejudice the integrity and objectives
of the proposed changes or result in a land use pattern that might be inconsistent with the intent of the
recommendations of the Town resulting from such study. The Town's existing procedures and laws should have
the practical effect of ensuring that new development and redevelopment are in accordance with the Town's
planning objectives. The practical reality, however, is that some of the land use regulations and procedures may
not have this effect. The Town Board finds it necessary to impose a moratorium on accepting, processing and
granting approvals or permits for resorts, hotels or motels, as hereafter provided. An integrated strategy that
takes into account the Town's available resources is needed. This moratorium will enable the Town to focus on
crafting and implementing a strategy that actually achieves its planning objectives.
The Town is currently in the process of a comprehensive zoning update project, and has hired a zoning
consultant to assist with this effort. The timeline for this project has been reaffirmed as being completed by
March 29, 2025. The review of resorts, hotels and motels will be included in this project. This is the rationale
for the 12-month moratorium.
SECTION 4. SCOPE OF THE REGULATIONS.
During the effective period of this law, neither the Planning Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, Town
Board, Town Building Department, or any member, employee, agent or independent contractor of any of the
foregoing Town bodies, shall accept for filing, accept for review, continue review, hold a hearing, make any
decision upon, or otherwise consider, any application for, or relating to, the development or redevelopment of
any property, parcel of land, building, or anything else, for a resort, hotel or motel, as defined in the Town
Code, including but not limited to documents relating to:
1. concept,preliminary or final approval of a subdivision plat,
2. site plan approvals,
3. special use permits,
4. conditional use permits,
5. use or area variances,
6. changes in zoning districts, or
7. permanent or temporary certificates of occupancy,
8. expansion of existing hotels, motels, or resorts.
regardless of the fact that an application has been submitted prior to the effective date of this local law. The
statutory and locally enacted time periods for processing and making decisions on all aspects of the foregoing
are suspended and stayed while this local law is in effect.
SECTION 5. EXCLUSIONS.
This Local Law Shall not apply:
1. To any person or entity who/which has, prior to the effective date of this Local Law, obtained all
permits required for such a resort, hotel, motel and, relying upon such permission, has undertaken
significant development of same.
2. To any application by a municipal corporation or special district or fire district.
SECTION 6. VARIANCE FROM THIS MORATORIUM.
Any person or entity suffering unnecessary hardship as that term is used and construed in Town Law
section 267-b (2)(b), by reason of the enactment and continuance of this moratorium may apply to the Town
Board for a variance excepting the proposed use from the temporary moratorium and allowing issuance of a
permit all in accordance with the provisions of the Southold Town Code.
SECTION 7. CONFLICT WITH STATE STATUTES AND AUTHORITY TO SUPERSEDE.
To the extent that any provisions of this local law are in conflict with or are construed as inconsistent
with provisions of New York State Town Law, this local law supersedes, amends and takes precedence over
New York State Town Law pursuant to the Town's municipal home rule powers, pursuant to Municipal Home
Rule Law § 10 and § 22, to supersede any inconsistent authority.
SECTION 8. SEVERABILITY.
If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or part of this Local Law shall be adjudicated by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the judgment shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of this Local
Law.
SECTION 9. EFFECTIVE DATE AND DURATION.
This local law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State.
Until twelve (12) months from the effective date of this Local law, after which this Local law shall lapse
and be without further force and effect and subject to any other Local Law adopted by the Town Board during
the twelve 12 month period.

BESS Local Law Overrule SC Planning
WHEREAS, on February 27, 2024, the Town Board of the Town of Southold adopted Resolution 2024-192,
which set a public hearing to consider a Local Law establishing a twelve (12) month Extension of the
Temporary Moratorium on the issuance of approvals and/or permits for Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
facilities, setting forth the reasons therefore in the body of the resolution; and
WHEREAS, as part of that proceeding the Town Board of the Town of Southold referred the local law to the
Suffolk County Planning Commission, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission issued its report regarding the proposed Local Law after a public
hearing, and recommended an approval of the proposed local law with a condition that it shall be limited to an
initial six (6) month period only, with the requirement that"[t]he Town shall return to the Suffolk County
Planning Commission at the end of the six (6) month period(i.e. September 2024)to report on their progress
with updates to their code for BESS facilities, and to discuss if an additional six (6) month period extension of
the moratorium for the full twelve (12) months is warranted".
WHEREAS, the rationale supporting the Commission's decision was based upon the decisions made in a
majority of its prior actions that required and/or requested the affected municipality to return to report on its
progress; and
WHEREAS, on March 26, 2024, the Town Board of the Town of Southold, following a public hearing and
consideration of the entire record, including the aforesaid comments and recommendations of the Suffolk
County Planning Commission, adopted Local Law 2024-309 enacting a twelve (12) month Extension of a
Temporary Moratorium on the issuance of approvals and/or permits for Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
facilities;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section A14-22 of
the Suffolk County Administrative Code and Section 239-m(6) of the General Municipal Law, the Town Board
of the Town of Southold hereby sets forth the reasons the Town Board, by super majority, voted to override the
full recommendation of the Commission:
1. The Town Board finds that the condition requiring the Town to return to the Commission
in six (6) months will have no practical value due to the documented efforts of the BESS
Task force and the established timeline for the conclusion of its findings, report and code
recommendations to the Town Board, which will not be available at the time of the
requested six (6) month report back in September of 2024.
The BESS task force will also be considering the initial recommendations of Governor
Hochul's Inter-Agency Fire Safety Working Group which were only released recently.
Per a recent press release for the Governor, these recommendations are to be considered
by the New York State Code Council and are expected to be included in the next edition
of the Fire Code of New York State. Additionally, it is reported that the Governor's
Task Force is still conducting inspections of BESS systems to further evaluate and guide
the State.
Any conclusive and final findings of the Working Group is far from complete. The Town
Board finds that the timing of all state and local findings and recommendations will
require extensive time and would not be resolved in the next six months. The Town
Board acknowledges and understands the need for clear and concise recommendations
and or laws to successfully work toward a safe and effective Bess Code;
2. The Town Board finds that a condition requiring the Town to return to the Commission in
six (6) months will have no practical value due to the ongoing comprehensive zoning
update project being conducted by the Town's Consultants. This process is intended to
lead to the creation and adoption of necessary amendments to the Town's zoning
legislation, comprehensive plan and other applicable Town laws that will include BESS
facilities. The timeline for this project has been reaffirmed to be completed by March 29,
2025;
3. The twelve (12) month extension of this moratorium is a reasonable and necessary
exercise of the Town's authority to preserve the status quo while the Town reviews the
issues and thoughtfully crafts code necessary to address them. The Town believes that
the twelve (12) month extension of the moratorium, without a requirement to return in six
(6) months, is the only method to permit the Town to advance its current planning needs
and goals; and
4. This twelve (12) month moratorium extension is specific and would restrict BESS
facilities only. It is limited in terms of its reach, and does not affect any other type of
energy use. Further, the enacted law includes a mechanism for hardship applications.
Accordingly, the length of the moratorium extension is reasonable.

DEPARTMENT. Town Attorney
PH 6118 4:30 Pin- Chapter 234-SPDES
WHEREAS there has been presented to the Town Board of the Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New York,
on the 9 h day of April, 2024, A Local Law entitled, "A Local Law in relation to SPDES Stormwater
Management and Erosion & Sediment Control." and therefor be it
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold will hold a public hearing on the aforesaid Local
Law at Southold Town Hall, 53095 Main Road, Southold, New York, on the 18th day of June, 2024 at 4:30
p.m. at which time all interested persons will be given an opportunity to be heard.
The purposed Local Law entitled, "A Local Law in relation to SPDES Stormwater Management and
Erosion & Sediment Control"reads as follows:
LOCAL LAW NO. 2024
L A new Chapter 234 of the Code of the Town of Southold is hereby adopted as follows:
A Local Law entitled, "A Local Law in relation to SPDES Stormwater Management and Erosion &
Sediment Control".
IL §234-1 Legislative Intent
A. Findings. The State of New York, pursuant to the Clean Water Act(33 U.S.C. §1251 et
seq.) is authorized to adopt and implement a State Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (SPDES)permit program regulating the discharge of pollutants from new or
existing outlets or point sources into the waters of the State. The State enacted Article
17, Title 8, of the Environmental Conservation Law requiring a State Pollution Discharge
Elimination System (SPDES)permit prior to the discharge of any pollutants. Under the
Federal National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) regulations, as
administrated by New York State, municipalities are required to obtain a permit for the
discharge of stormwater. The SPDES permit requires that the Town enact a local law
that complies with federal and New York State guidelines for stormwater control, which
addresses the following findings of fact as determined by the State and accepted by the
Town of Southold:
1. Land development activities and associated increases in site impervious cover
often alter the hydrologic response of local watersheds and increase stormwater
runoff rates and volumes, flooding, stream channel erosion, or sediment transport
and deposition;
2. This stormwater runoff contributes to increased quantities of water-borne
pollutants, including siltation of aquatic habitat for fish and other desirable species;
3. Clearing and grading during construction tends to increase soil erosion and add to
the loss of native vegetation necessary for terrestrial and aquatic habitat;
4. Improper design and construction of stormwater management practices can
increase the velocity of stormwater runoff thereby increasing stream bank erosion
and sedimentation;
5. Impervious surfaces allow less water to percolate into the soil, thereby decreasing
groundwater recharge and stream baseflow;
6. Substantial economic losses can result from these adverse impacts on the waters
of the municipality;
7. Stormwater runoff, soil erosion and nonpoint source pollution can be controlled
and minimized through the regulation of stormwater runoff from land
development activities;
8. The regulation of stormwater runoff discharges from land development activities
in order to control and minimize increases in stormwater runoff rates and
volumes, soil erosion, stream channel erosion, and nonpoint source pollution
associated with stormwater runoff is in the public interest and will minimize
threats to public health and safety.
9. Regulation of land development activities by means of performance standards
governing stormwater management and site design will produce development
compatible with the natural functions of a particular site or an entire watershed
and thereby mitigate the adverse effects of erosion and sedimentation from
development.
B. Purpose. The purpose of this local law is to establish minimum stormwater management
requirements and controls to protect and safeguard the general health, safety, and welfare
of the public residing within this jurisdiction and to address the findings of fact in Section
1 hereof. This local law seeks to meet those purposes by achieving the following
objectives:
1. Meet the requirements of minimum measures 4 and 5 of the SPDES General
Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Municipal Separate Stormwater Sewer
Systems (MS4s), Permit No. GP-0-24-001 or as amended or revised;
2. Require land development activities to conform to the substantive requirements of
the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation State Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (SPDES) General Permit for Construction Activities GP-0-
20-001 or as amended or revised;
3. Minimize increases in stormwater runoff from land development activities in
order to reduce flooding, siltation, increases in stream temperature, and
streambank erosion and maintain the integrity of stream channels;
4. Minimize increases in pollution caused by stormwater runoff from land
development activities which would otherwise degrade local water quality;
5. Minimize the total annual volume of stormwater runoff which flows from any
specific site during and following development to the maximum extent
practicable; and
6. Reduce stormwater runoff rates and volumes, soil erosion and nonpoint source
pollution, wherever possible, through stormwater management practices and to
ensure that these management practices are properly maintained and eliminate
threats to public safety.
C. Statutory Authority. In accordance with Article 10 of the Municipal Home Rule Law of
the State of New York, the Town of Southold has the authority to enact local laws and
amend local laws and for the purpose of promoting the health, safety or general welfare
of the Town of Southold and for the protection and enhancement of its physical
environment._The Town of Southold may include in any such local law provisions for the
appointment of any municipal officer, employees, or independent contractor to effectuate,
administer and enforce such local law.
D. Applicability. This local law shall be applicable to all land development activities as
defined in this local law.
1. The municipality shall designate a Stormwater Management Officer who shall
accept and review all stormwater pollution prevention plans and forward such
plans to the applicable municipal board. The Stormwater Management Officer
may (1)review the plans, (2) upon approval by the Town Board of the Town of
Southold, engage the services of a registered professional engineer to review the
plans, specifications and related documents at a cost not to exceed a fee schedule
established by said governing board, or(3) accept the certification of a licensed
professional that the plans conform to the requirements of this law.
2. All land development activities subject to review and approval by any duly
authorized Board of the Town shall be reviewed subject to the standards
contained in this local law
3. All land development activities not subject to review as stated herein at subsection
(D)(2) of this paragraph shall be required to submit a Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to the Stormwater Management Officer who shall
approve the SWPPP if it complies with the requirements of this law.
E. Exemptions. The following activities may be exempt from review under this law.
1. Agricultural activity as defined in this local law.
2. Silvicultural activity except that landing areas and log haul roads are subject to
this law.
3. Routine maintenance activities that disturb less than five acres and are performed
to maintain the original line and grade, hydraulic capacity or original purpose of a
facility.
4. Repairs to any stormwater management practice or facility deemed necessary by
the Stormwater Management Officer.
5. Any part of a subdivision if a plat for the subdivision has been approved by the
Town of Southold on or before the effective date of this law.
6. Land development activities for which a building permit has been approved on or

wash water and water from firefighting activities. Such exempt discharges
shall be made in accordance with an appropriate plan for reducing pollutants.
2. Discharges approved in writing by the SMO to protect life or property from
imminent harm or damage, provided that, such approval shall not be construed to
constitute compliance with other applicable laws and requirements, and further
provided that such discharges may be permitted for a specified time period and
under such conditions as the SMO may deem appropriate to protect such life and
property while reasonably maintaining the purpose and intent of this local law.
3. Dye testing in compliance with applicable state and local laws is an allowable
discharge, but requires a verbal notification to the SMO prior to the time of the
test.
4. The prohibition shall not apply to any discharge permitted under an SPDES
permit, waiver, or waste discharge order issued to the discharger and administered
under the authority of the Department, provided that the discharger is in full
compliance with all requirements of the permit, waiver, or order and other
applicable laws and regulations, and provided that written approval has been
granted for any discharge to the MS4.
B. Prohibition of Illicit Connections.
I. The construction, use, maintenance or continued existence of illicit connections to
the MS4 is prohibited.
2. This prohibition expressly includes, without limitation, illicit connections made in
the past, regardless of whether the connection was permissible under law or
practices applicable or prevailing at the time of connection.
3. A person is considered to be in violation of this local law if the person connects a
line conveying sewage to the municipality's MS4, or allows such a connection to
continue.
235-6. PROHIBITION AGAINST ACTIVITIES CONTAMINATING STORMWATER
A. Activities that are subject to the requirements of this section are those types of activities
that:
I. Cause or contribute to a violation of the municipality's MS4 SPDES permit.
2. Cause or contribute to the municipality being subject to the Special Conditions as
defined in §235-2 (Definitions) of this local law.
B. Upon notification to a person that he or she is engaged in activities that cause or
contribute to violations of the municipality's MS4 SPDES permit authorization, that
person shall take all reasonable actions to correct such activities such that he or she no longer causes
or contributes to violations of the municipality's MS4 SPDES permit
authorization.
235-7. REQUIREMENT TO PREVENT, CONTROL, AND REDUCE STORMWATER
POLLUTANTS BY THE USE OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES.
A. Best Management Practices
Where the SMO has identified illicit discharges as defined in §235-2 or activities
contaminating stormwater as defined in §235-6 the municipality may require
implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to control those illicit discharges
and activities.
I. The owner or operator of a commercial or industrial establishment shall provide,
at their own expense, reasonable protection from accidental discharge of
prohibited materials or other wastes into the MS4 through the use of structural
and non-structural BMPs.
2. Any person responsible for a property or premise,which is, or may be, the source
of an illicit discharge as defined in §235-2 or an activity contaminating
stormwater as defined in §235-6, may be required to implement, at said person's
expense, additional structural and non-structural BMPs to reduce or eliminate the
source of pollutant(s) to the MS4.
3. Compliance with all terms and conditions of a valid SPDES permit authorizing
the discharge of stormwater associated with industrial activity, to the extent
practicable, shall be deemed compliance with the provisions of this section.
235-8. SUSPENSION OF ACCESS TO MS4. Illicit Discharges in Emergency Situations.
A. The SMO may, without prior notice, suspend MS4 discharge access to a person when
such suspension is necessary to stop an actual or threatened discharge which presents or
may present imminent and substantial danger to the environment, to the health or welfare
of persons, or to the MS4. The SMO shall notify the person of such suspension within a
reasonable time thereafter in writing of the reasons for the suspension. If the violator fails
to comply with a suspension order issued in an emergency, the SMO may take such steps
as deemed necessary to prevent or minimize damage to the MS4 or to minimize danger to
persons.
B. Suspension due to the detection of illicit discharge. Any person discharging to the
municipality's MS4 in violation of this law may have their MS4 access terminated if such
termination would abate or reduce an illicit discharge. The SMO will notify a violator in
writing of the proposed termination of its MS4 access and the reasons therefor. The
violator may petition the SMO for a reconsideration and hearing. Access may be
granted by the SMO if he/she finds that the illicit discharge has ceased and the discharger
has taken steps to prevent its recurrence. Access may be denied if the SMO determines
in writing that the illicit discharge has not ceased or is likely to recur. A person commits
an offense if the person reinstates MS4 access to premises terminated pursuant to this
section, without the prior approval of the SMO.
235- 9. INDUSTRIAL OR CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY DISCHARGES.
Any person subject to an industrial or construction activity SPDES stormwater discharge permit shall comply
with all provisions of such permit. Proof of compliance with said permit may be required in a form acceptable
to the municipality prior to the allowing of discharges to the MS4.
235- 10. ACCESS AND MONITORING OF DISCHARGES.
A. Applicability. This section applies to all facilities that the SMO must inspect to enforce
any provision of this Law, or whenever the authorized enforcement agency has cause to
believe that there exists, or potentially exists, in or upon any premises any condition
which constitutes a violation of this Law.
B. Access to Facilities.
I. The SMO shall be permitted to enter and inspect facilities subject to regulation
under this law as often as may be necessary to determine compliance with this
Law. If a discharger has security measures in force which require proper
identification and clearance before entry into its premises, the discharger shall
make the necessary arrangements to allow access to the SMO.
2. Facility operators shall allow the SMO ready access to all parts of the premises
for the purposes of inspection, sampling, examination and copying of records as
may be required to implement this law.
3. The municipality shall have the right to set up on any facility subject to this law
such devices as are necessary in the opinion of the SMO to conduct monitoring
and/or sampling of the facility's stormwater discharge.
4. The municipality has the right to require the facilities subject to this law to install
monitoring equipment as is reasonably necessary to determine compliance with
this law. The facility's sampling and monitoring equipment shall be maintained
at all times in a safe and proper operating condition by the discharger at its own
expense. All devices used to measure stormwater flow and quality shall be
calibrated to ensure their accuracy.
5. Unreasonable delays in allowing the municipality access to a facility subject to
this law is a violation of this law. A person who is the operator of a facility
subject to this law commits an offense if the person denies the municipality
reasonable access to the facility for the purpose of conducting any activity
authorized or required by this law.
6. If the SMO has been refused access to any part of the premises from which
stormwater is discharged, and he/she is able to demonstrate probable cause to
believe that there may be a violation of this law, or that there is a need to inspect
and/or sample as part of a routine inspection and sampling program designed to
verify compliance with this law or any order issued hereunder, then the SMO may
seek issuance of a search warrant from any court of competent jurisdiction.
235- 11. NOTIFICATION OF SPILLS.
Notwithstanding other requirements of law, as soon as any person responsible for a facility or operation, or
responsible for emergency response for a facility or operation has information of any known or suspected
release of materials which are resulting or may result in illegal discharges or pollutants discharging into the
MS4, said person shall take all necessary steps to ensure the discovery, containment, and cleanup of such
release. In the event of such a release of hazardous materials said person shall immediately notify emergency
response agencies of the occurrence via emergency dispatch services. In the event of a release of non-hazardous
materials, said person shall notify the municipality in person or by telephone or facsimile no later than the next
business day. Notifications in person or by telephone shall be confirmed by written notice addressed and mailed
to the municipality within three business days of the telephone notice. If the discharge of prohibited materials
emanates from a commercial or industrial establishment, the owner or operator of such establishment shall also
retain an on-site written record of the discharge and the actions taken to prevent its recurrence. Such records
shall be retained for at least three years.
235- 12. ENFORCEMENT.
A. Notice of Violation.
When the municipality's SMO finds that a person has violated a prohibition or failed to
meet a requirement of this law, he/she may order compliance by written notice of
violation to the responsible person. Such notice may require without limitation:
1. The elimination of illicit connections or discharges;
2. That violating discharges, practices, or operations shall cease and desist;
3. The abatement or remediation of stormwater pollution or contamination hazards
and the restoration of any affected property;
4. The performance of monitoring, analyses, and reporting;
5. Payment of a fine; and
6. The implementation of source control or treatment BMPs. If abatement of a
violation and/or restoration of affected property is required, the notice shall set
forth a deadline within which such remediation or restoration must be completed.
Said notice shall further advise that, should the violator fail to remediate or
restore within the established deadline, the work will be done by a designated
governmental agency or a contractor and the expense thereof shall be charged to
the violator.
B. Penalties
In addition to or as an alternative to any penalty provided herein or by law, any person
who violates the provisions of this local law shall be guilty of a violation punishable by a
fine not exceeding One Thousand dollars ($1,000.00) or imprisonment for a period not to
exceed six (6) months, or both for conviction of a first offense; for conviction of a second
offense both of which were committed within a period of five (5)years, punishable by a

Ten Thousand dollars ($10,000.00)nor more than Twenty Thousand dollars ($20,000.00)
or imprisonment for a period not to exceed six (6) months, or both.
However, for the purposes of conferring jurisdiction upon courts and judicial officers
generally, violations of this local law shall be deemed misdemeanors and for such
purpose only all provisions of law relating to misdemeanors shall apply to such
violations each week's continued violation shall constitute a separate additional violation.
235-13. APPEAL OF NOTICE OF VIOLATION.
Any person receiving a Notice of Violation may appeal the determination of the SMO to the Town of Southold
within fifteen (15) days of its issuance, which shall hear the appeal within thirty (30) days after the filing of the
appeal, and within five (5) days of making its decision, file its decision in the office of the municipal clerk and
mail a copy of its decision by certified mail to the discharger.
235-14. CORRECTIVE MEASURES AFTER APPEAL.
A. If the violation has not been corrected pursuant to the requirements set forth in the Notice
of Violation, or, in the event of an appeal, within five (5)business days of the decision of
the municipal authority upholding the decision of the SMO, then the SMO shall request
the owner's permission for access to the subject private property to take any and all
measures reasonably necessary to abate the violation and/or restore the property.
B. If refused access to the subject private property, the SMO may seek a warrant in a court
of competent jurisdiction to be authorized to enter upon the property to determine
whether a violation has occurred. Upon determination that a violation has occurred, the
SMO may seek a court order to take any and all measures reasonably necessary to abate
the violation and/or restore the property. The cost of implementing and maintaining such
measures shall be the sole responsibility of the discharger.
235 15. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.
It shall be unlawful for any person to violate any provision or fail to comply with any of the
requirements of this law. If a person has violated or continues to violate the provisions of this law, the SMO
may petition for a preliminary or permanent injunction restraining the person from activities which would create
further violations or compelling the person to perform abatement or remediation of the violation.
235-16. ALTERNATIVE REMEDIES.
A. Where a person has violated a provision of this Law, he/she may be eligible for alternative remedies
in lieu of a civil penalty, upon recommendation of the Municipal
Attorney and concurrence of the Municipal Code Enforcement Officer, where:
1. The violation was unintentional
2. The violator has no history of pervious violations of this Law.
3. Environmental damage was minimal.

In addition to the enforcement processes and penalties provided, any condition caused or permitted to exist in
violation of any of the provisions of this law is a threat to public health, safety, and welfare, and is declared and
deemed a nuisance, and may be summarily abated or restored at the violator's expense, and/or a civil action to
abate, enjoin, or otherwise compel the cessation of such nuisance may be taken.
235-18. REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE.
The remedies listed in this law are not exclusive of any other remedies available under any applicable federal,
state or local law and it is within the discretion of the authorized enforcement agency to seek cumulative
remedies.
III. SEVERABILITY.
The provisions of this law are hereby declared to be severable. If any provision, clause, sentence, or paragraph
of this law or the application thereof to any person, establishment, or circumstances shall be held invalid, such
invalidity shall not affect the other provisions or application of this law.

Department.
PERVIOUS SURFACE
A pervious surface is one that has the ability to be readily penetrated by stormwater or other runoff. Pervious
pavement mixtures contain little or no fine particles creating a substantial void content while still maintaining
its structure integrity. Aggregate materials typically consist of No. 1 or No. 2 rounded "rocklike" fragments
using sufficient approved cementitious materials, paste or bonding agents to permanently fasten aggregate
particles together to create a system of highly permeable, interconnected voids that freely drain. Typically,
between 15% and 25% of interconnected voids are required for consideration as a pervious pavement. The flow
rate of water through pervious surfaces is typically around five gallons per square foot per minute or higher.

236-13. Performance Standards for Approval of a Stormwater Mannement Control Plan.
A. The site erosion, sedimentation and stormwater runoff control measures shall be
appropriate for existing topo2raphy, vegetation and other salient natural features of
the site. The plan shall indicate that the development will preserve natural features,
minimize 2radin2 and cut and fill operations, ensure conformity with natural
topo2raphy, and retain natural vegetation and trees to the maximum extent
practicable in order to create the least erosion potential and handle adequately the
volume and rate or velocity, of surface water runoff.
B. Site 2radin2, excavation and filling shall minimize destruction of natural vegetation,
the potential for erosion, sedimentation and stormwater runoff and the threat to the
health, safety and welfare of nei2hborin2 property owners and the ;general public.
C. Erosion, sedimentation and stormwater runoff shall be controlled prior to, during,
and after site preparation and construction. During 2radin2 operations, appropriate
measures for dust control shall be undertaken.
D. Areas exposed by site preparation shall be protected during site construction with
hay bales, temporary vegetation and/or mulching to meet the requirements of the
approved Stormwater Management Control Plan in effect.
E. Natural drainage patterns shall be protected and incorporated into site design.
Where natural drainage patterns are demonstrated to be adversely affecting a
beach or wetland, drainage patterns may be altered in a manner which reduces the
threat to such beach or wetland and does not create other flooding or erosion problems.
F. Site preparation,including stripping of vegetative cover and 2radin2, shall be
undertaken so that no individual building site is stripped of its vegetation cover
more than thirty (30) days prior to commencement of construction. Soils exposed or
disturbed by site preparation shall remain so for the shortest practical period of
time during site clearing, construction and restoration.
G. Disturbed soils shall be stabilized and reve2etated or seeded as soon as practicable.
During the interim, erosion protection measures such as temporary vegetation,
retention ponds, recharge basins,bermin2, silt traps and mulching shall be used to
ensure that sedimentation is minimized and mitigated.
H. In no case shall stormwater be diverted to another property either during site
preparation or after development. In appropriate cases, with the approval of the
Superintendent of Highways, drainage control measures may be implemented in the
right of way attendant to an adiacent Town highway, at the applicant's expense.
L During the construction period, disposal of stormwater runoff generated by
development activity shall be handled on-site. Baling, mulching, debris basins, silt
traps, use of fibrous cover materials or similar measures shall be used to contain soil
erosion on the site.
J. All proiects, regardless of the area of groundwater removal and/or 2radin2, shall
retain a natural vegetative buffer zone alone waterbodies, including wetlands and
marshes, if one is imposed by the Board of Trustees. If necessary, other forms of
erosion control measures will also be included.
K Natural land features such as shallow depressions shall be used,wherever possible,
to collect stormwater on-site for recharge.
L. Site designs shall minimize impermeable paving.
M. Stormwater runoff shall not be directly discharged to surface waters, marshes and
wetlands. Stormwater pollutants shall not be discharged directly into a wetland,but
shall be attenuated by using holding ponds, sedimentation basins, perimeter
bermin2, vegetated buffer areas and other measures that reduce flow velocity and
increase storage time. Pollutants shall not be discharged into wetlands. In addition,
any filtering devices constructed as part of the drainage system must be adequately
maintained in order to function properly.
N. All wetland vegetation shall be maintained. Dredtin2 and site construction should
not disturb wetlands either by direct removal of vegetation or substrate, or by the
alteration of adjacent slopes that would undermine the stability of the substrate
unless permission is obtained from the Board of Trustees. Grading equipment shall
not be allowed to enter into or cross any watercourse or wetland.
O. Subsurface sediments shall be maintained to provide structural support for the soils
of the wetlands.
P. The elevation of a wetland shall not be altered.
O. No vegetation required by any agency as a buffer to a natural protective feature
shall be disturbed by 2radin2, erosion, sedimentation, or direct removal of
vegetation.
R. Fill shall not encroach on natural watercourses, constructed channels,wetlands, or
floodway areas. All fill shall be compacted at a final angle of repose which provides
stability for the material, minimizes erosion and prevents settlement.
S. Trails and walking paths alone waterbodies shall be sited and constructed so they
are not a source of sediment subiect to the approval of the Board of Trustees.
T. The amount and velocity of runoff from a site after development shall approximate
its predevelopment characteristics. However, if the site is adiacent to coastal waters,
storm water shall be contained on-site, to the maximum extent practicable, to
prevent direct discharge of runoff to coastal waters.
U. Natural flood plains and maior drainage swales shall not be altered or disturbed in
a manner which decreases their ability to accommodate and channel stormwater
runoff and flood waters. If no practicable alternative to the location of development,
roadway, driveways, and similar surfaces within these areas exists, such facilities
shall be sited and constructed to minimize and mitigate the amount and velocity of
stormwater entering the channel, floodplain or swale and to approximate the
original functions of the undisturbed condition.
V. No land having a slope equal to or treater than twenty (20) percent shall be
developed or disturbed except for conservation measures or measures intended to
remove debris which inhibits the functioning of the swale, except accessways to
shorelines approved by the Board of Trustees shall be permitted. Natural vegetation
and topo2raphy shall be retained to stabilize soils and reduce the volume of
stormwater overflow.
W. On lands having slopes of less than twenty(20) percent, but composed of highly
erodible soils, development proposals shall include consideration of the load-bearing
capacity of the soils. Unless it can be demonstrated that the soils can be stabilized
with a minimum of on-site disturbance and no adverse impacts to the stability of
nei2hborin2 properties, the development proposal shall not be approved as
submitted.
X. All permanent(final)vegetation and mechanical erosion control measures called for
in approved plans shall be installed within the time limits specified by the Building
Inspector, and no later than the expiration of the municipal permit issued therewith.

236-15. Inspection, Restoration, Certificate of Occupancy and Fines.
A. Inspection
Inspection for soil erosion, sedimentation, and runoff control plan compliance shall
be conducted by the Building Inspector to determine that the work has been
completed in accordance with such plan. The plan may be modified by mutual
agreement if, during or after installation, the Building Inspector deems that the
installed measures are not adequate to meet the performance standards or if
alternatives would better meet the Code requirements. If no agreement is reached,
the Building Inspector may require the submission of a modified plan in order to
maintain compliance with this local law.
B. Restoration.
Any clearing, excavation or development of land in violation of this local law shall
be corrected forthwith after written notice by the Building Inspector. In the event
that corrective action is not taken as directed within a reasonable time, the Town
may, at its own expense, take corrective action to restore the property or initiate
legal action to prevent unlawful or unauthorized activity. The cost of restoration
shall become a lien upon the property upon which such unlawful activity occurred.
C Certificate of Occupancy.
No certificate of occupancy shall be issued by the Building Inspector until all work
required to be completed pursuant to the plan has been satisfactorily done.
D Fines.
Any responsible party undertaking clearing, excavation or development of land in
violation of this local law, or falsifying information in connection with the
requirements of this Local Law, upon conviction, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
punishable by a fine of not less than five hundred dollars ($500) and not more than
two thousand dollars ($2,000). Such person shall be deemed guilty of a separate
offense for each day during which a violation of this local law is committed or
continues.
E. Enforcement.
The Director of Code Enforcement and/or the Building Inspector are responsible
for enforcement of the provisions of this Chapter, and have the authority to issue
violations of this Chapter. The Town Attorney shall be responsible for prosecution
of any such violations. In addition to the above-provided fines, the Town Board
may authorize an action or proceeding in the name of the Town in a court of
competent jurisdiction to compel compliance with or to restrain by injunction the
violation of this Chapter.
